Today at Real Toads Sunday Mini Challenge Ella challenged us to create a poem from a collection of Instagram Photos. I have an Android phone and I thought it would be fun to create my own image.
a fairy’s passing left no prints
on green blades of grass,
her toes curled into whispers.
the guardian moon watches
as she collects dew from pink roses
her sleepy eyes twinkling in its beams.
a final rose needs her attention
before she can seek her rest,
the nightingale already singing its lullaby.
the moon smiles and wonders
what the tiny fairy dreams
when night finally cradles her in sleep.

This is one of Ella's images. I have given it the title, The Land of Fairies. I hope she won't mind. :)

Love the toes curled in whispers--that is a charming little fairy, too--her dreams have to be of things like gumdrop necklaces and cobweb hair ribbons, I think. Very nice take on the prompt, Susie.
Delightful, Susie, lilting and full of light.
